One Month to Win It - Week 3 Project Reveal

*I found out this morning that I am out of the competition now but congrats to everyone who is still in! I had so much fun making crafts every week and competing with some seriously talented ladies!*

This week's theme is my favorite! I love finding great tutorials from crafters and following them! I decided to make a Chicken Wire Frame and I followed The Project Girl's tutorial. Not only is her tutorial really easy to follow but she has free printables for this project as well! The cost for this project for me was free! I already had a frame that I wanted to re-purpose, spray paint & staple gun and I used some of my grandpa's chicken wire. I am thrilled with how it turned out and it makes me want to make more of them! Here are my before and after shots (it's a pretty big change!)

And here are some upclose and personal shots I took so that you can see how cute the printables look on it!

I really love the printables on it but for me it works better to clip my niece and nephew photos on it :) It was my niece/nephew frame but with the mat there were only 6 openings and I have way more nieces/nephews than that! So I am thrilled to have more room on the chicken wire.
